HOMEWARD BOUND

KICKIN DOWN THE ROAD IN A 4X4
500 HORSES AND FOUR ON THE FLOOR
I’M COMIN BACK HOME TO MY LIFE BEFORE
HOPE AGAINST HOPE YOU’RE WAITIN BY THE DOOR

COS THE GRASS AIN’T GREENER WAY OVER THAT HILL
I WAS RUNNIN DOWN THE ROAD I COULD BE RUNNIN STILL
BUT I FOUND MY HORIZON TURNING AROUND
WHEN MY HEART TOLD MY HEAD TO BE HOMEWARD BOUND

WELL I THOUGHT THAT FOUR WALLS WERE TOO HARD TO BEAR
I HAD TO GET AWAY JUST BE GOIN SOMEWHERE
I SET OUT ON THE ROAD LIKE A DISTRESS FLARE
TELLIN MYSELF THAT I DID NOT CARE

CH
BUT THE GRASS AIN’T GREENER WAY OVER THAT HILL
I WAS RUNNIN DOWN THE ROAD I COULD BE RUNNIN STILL
BUT I FOUND MY HORIZON TURNING AROUND
WHEN MY HEART TOLD MY HEAD TO BE HOMEWARD BOUND

M8
THEY SAY YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU HAD TILL IT’S GONE
I MISSED YOU EVERY MILE THAT I’VE DRIVEN UPON
BABY YOU’RE THE REASON THAT I TURNED AROUND
AND I KNEW THAT I HAD TO BE HOMEWARD BOUND

SOLO

I’M GONNA MAKE IT UP TO YOU IF YOU LET ME BACK IN
I’M NEVER GONNA LEAVE YOU EVER AGAIN
I KNOW I’VE BEEN CRAZY, GUESS I WAS BLIND
I REALISED WHAT IT WAS THAT I’D LEFT BEHIND

I GUESS I MUST’VE GONE RIGHT OUT OF MY MIND
THINKIN THERE WAS SOMETHIN OUT THERE I HAD TO FIND
SO I’M DRIVIN BACK TO YOU AT THE SPEED OF SOUND
COS MY HEART TOLD MY HEAD TO BE HOMEWARD BOUND

Barry Kingsbeer Stratford Upon Avon, UK

I've played bass and sung since I was 13. Pro back in the sixties for a while doing the beat group thing through to some spectacularly unsuccessful recordings. Over the years I've been lucky to have worked with some great players. I started writing songs in the 70s but not seriously until a few years ago. I write to please myself but if anyone likes anything that they hear here - that's a bonus. ... more
